Duo, Groupe, Chorale & Associations
Ca fait longtemps que je n'ai rien posté sur ce blog, alors je voulais juste partager quelques nouvels.
Depuis à peu près 2 ans j'ai changé les formations musicales dans lesquels je joue. Sola ne joue plus, ni Last Chance, mais je laisse les liens à côté pour les souvenirs.
Maintenant je joue en duo avec Michelle (ma femme) sous le nom de Liv'in'Proof. Nous avons un site http://www.livinproof.fr où on peut écouter nos compositions, voir quelques vidéos, et découvrir nos news. Notre style live est plutôt acoustique folk/pop.
Tous les deux, nous jouons également sous le nom d'Everlight's Keep avec les amis Michel et Karim. C'est encore pas mal de compositions, mais dans un style plus rock. Pour plus d'infos : https://www.facebook.com/everlightskeep
Et puis je mène depuis quelques années une chorale anglophone qui s'appelle s[i]nglish. Nous chantons, pour la plupart, des chansons pop/rock anglophone, mais également de temps en temps des chansons traditionnels, ou même classique. Pour plus d'info, rendez-vous sur la page : http://www.musicalame.org/singlish/ La chorale est ouverte à tous, peu importe le niveau d'anglais, peu importe le niveau de chant. L'essentiel c'est de vouloir prendre du plaisir dans les deux :-)
Et finalement, pour regrouper et gérer ces trois formations, nous avons créés une association qui a pris pour nom : Musical'âme. Toutes les infos sont sur le site: http://www.musicalame.org

Calendrier 2014 - en français
Je me suis rendu compte dernièrement qu'il y a très peu de calendriers 2014 disponible sur internet de façon gratuit, et en français pour fabriquer ses propres calendriers. Alors voici une image que j'ai retravaillé de sa version anglais, pour donner les mois de l'année en français. J'espère qu'il pouvait être utile à quelqu'un.

Reflections on the Psalms - C.S.Lewis
Just wanted to note down a few thoughts from reading this great little book by C.S. Lewis 'Reflections on the Psalms'.
Firstly, in chapter II he talks about 'Judgement In The Psalms' and what particularly struck me, is how he draws the readers attention to the book of Judges in the Bible. He points out that we often have an image of God as Judge, to punish the guilty, etc., but the Jewish idea of a Judge was someone who maintained justice, and rendered justice to an injured party. Hence longing for judgement, because you had been wronged, for example. He talks about the idea of fairness, justice, equity. But what particularly struck me was when he talks about the judges in the book of Judges who were actually champions of the people, and it's related to the idea of providing fairness. The judges were raised up by God to vanquish an enemy who was mistreating them, a judge saves, protects, frees, liberates, sets things right. Hence, God is our judge, our champion, our saviour, our protector, our liberator! Excellent! He rights wrongs, and brings about justice.
Then in chapter IX he has a 'A Word About Praising' in which he points out that praising is a natural part of life:
". . . all enjoyment spontaneously overflows into praise unless (sometimes even if) shyness or the fear of boring others is deliberately brought in to check it. The world rings with praise - lovers praising their mistresses, readers their favourite poet, walkers praising the countryside, playesr praising their favourite game . . ." (p80)
And it's so true, which of us when we're caught up with a great book, or piece of music, or film, doesn't easily tell our friends of it's greatness, and the pleasure we derive from it. It's natural, normal, to give praise.
He goes on to say :
I had not noticed how the humblest, and at the same time most balanced and capacious, minds, praised most, while the cranks, the misfits and malcontents praised least. The good critics found something to praise in many imperfect works; the bad ones continually narrowed the list of books we might be allowed to read. . . . Except where intolerably adverse circumstances interfere, praise almost seems to be inner health made audible."(p80)
Praise is normal, natural and healthy. Personally, I thought that was particularly cool.
Then in chapter X 'Hidden Meanings' he reminds us that God can and often does choose to communicate elements of his truth through those who do not claim to any relationship with him, or even claim to have none.
". . . in mythology divine and diabolical and human elements . . . all play a part" claims C.S.Lewis, so that when we read, be it fiction, philosophy, comics, or whatever, we can be struck anew by aspects of the truth of God. God communicates to us through what we're reading, God communicates through the author, whether that author claims to know God or not. Just like he did with Cyrus (see Isaiah 45:1-6)

Testing Soundcloud
So, over on my web-site I've got a bunch of demos. They're mainly there so I can direct people to my songs, and also to enable easy access.
I'm just going to try and migrate to using Soundcloud for sharing purposes, and also, perhaps, to embed direct on the web-site.
Here's a tester:
